PILGRIMS' goalkeeper David Stockdale answered his critics at Glanford Park on Saturday, when Argyle lost 2-1 to Scunthorpe.
The young keeper came to the Greens' rescue several times as his team-mates pushed forward in ultimately vain search of an equaliser.
David, who is on loan from Premier League Fulham, has had his detractors since coming to Home Park, but head coach Paul Mariner is not one of them.
"We've spoken to David about a couple of things," said Paul. "We have supreme faith in him and he's going to be a very good goalie.
"As I said earlier in the week, he's a young goalkeeper; he's got a lot to learn - he knows that; he takes criticism extremely well, and coaching very, very well.
"Because we were pushing...to leave him exposed one on one four times seems as though we played poorly, but we didn't.
"He pulled us out of the mire on four occasions with brilliant point-blank saves."
